How can you have a misdemeanor removed from a federal court judge to help obtain a job or housing?
Although there ARE some federal misdemeanors - are you certain that the crime you are charged with is a federal misdemeanor offense, AND/OR that it is being heard in a federal court?If you are, in fact, charged with a federal misemeanor offense, the only thing you can do is file a motion for a change of venue, which would only move it to another US District Court, or file a motion for that particular federal judge recusethemselves from your case which would only have the effect of it being transferred to another federal judge.If you are charged, and to be tried, in federal court, then that is the court of proper jurisdiction, and you cannot get it moved somewhere else.
